There were 19 hijackers aboard the airplanes on September 11th. I'm sure I can come up with 19 Christians who've committed criminal acts using a religious justification. Abortion clinic bombers, murderers of doctors, that woman in Texas who dismembered her baby... Shall we then curse and revile Christianity? Of course not.
How can you, by any semblance of decency, compare the numbers that were slaughtered on 9/11 to the actions of a few sickos that murdered in the name of Christianity?
After the bombing of the Abortion clinics and murder of the abortion doctors, All branches of Christianity condemned those acts in the clearest possible terms. There was no justifying the murders to protect the innocent. Murder was, and is, murder.
I have never met encountered such bizzare reasoning anywhere that comes close to matching yours. You have done everything to defend the religion that openly seeks to destroy this country and her citizens. Where have you actually condemned the 19 for their actions?
RS, with whom I have more than enough disagreement, condones the killing of them (not here, but on the field of battle) Where have you at least said that?
Do you at least support the killing of those who would kill our people AND condemn the actions of those who perpetrated the 9/11 murder?
You disgust me.
It is disgusting that you, a person who swore to support and defend the Constitution - at Great Mistakes? - would deny and disparage the First and Fifth Amendments, at least, and ignore President Bush's dictum that we are at war with terrorism, not Islam. Indeed, it is the terrorists' fervent dreams that the West would war against Islam, for that is their best hope for recruiting new terrorists.
The reasoning of the un-American religious bigots here is that which is bizarre - holding over a billion people responsible for the acts of 19.
